SOB Hall of Famer: Have Laptop Will Travel by SeanRox
HaveLapTopWillTravel.com went live on June 3, 1999 as the personal site of me, SeanRox, to have a place to post random thoughts, rants, jokes and photos, all hand coded and static.
Since that time, it’s no longer a static site. It’s now a database powered with the same content and has grown into a place for me to review technology, movies, music and to let people know what’s new and exciting around the world. Have Laptop Will Travel still reflects my fun, easy-going attitude which is who I am, a laid-back geek with social skills, who enjoys geektastic toys and likes to give people a hard time. If I like you, I needle you but it’s all in good fun. I’m a nice guy, really.
I hope the above helps motivate and stimulate your brain… that’s what I like to do, get people thinking.
Notes from Liz: When SeanRox and I had our first conversation about relationship blogging, he told me about a post in which he asked his readers whether he should be the next James Bond, and about two other posts in which he and his readers discussed two laptop art projects — one involving a dollar bill collection he’s started and a second that updated both the stencils rocking the cover of his laptop and the tech advances going on inside. SeanRox’s extensive background in computers also means that he knows what he’s talking about when he decides he talking tech.
The cool part is that what he says about being a fun, easy-going, laid-back geek with social skills is also true. He proved it when he stopped by Open Comment Night with food for everyone and lots to add! Can’t help but like a blogger like that.
Whether he’s talking movies, tech, geek toys, instant messaging, hacking, or about his dog, SeanRox has a way of making what he says fun to read. Take a look and tell him that I said I need a picture first before I decide on that James Bond thing. They’ve already chosen the new guy for this time around, so I don’t suppose he’s waiting on me anyway. . . .
Thanks, SeanRox, for all of the conversation that makes you part of Successful Blog.

Has your SOB Blog Been Introduced to US?

How cool is that? What a great review you did of me and my blog. Thank you Liz.

A lot of people were shocked to see me in a suit, one that I actually own. Yes folks, some geeks do clean up nicely 🙂
Hi SeanRox,
I saw that picture of you, just his morning actually, but for some reason I just didn’t believe it was YOU. Well now, hmmmm, maybe the next movie . . . do you drink them shaken not stirred?
Yep, it’s me. If you look on my about page, there is another picture of me too but not in a suit 😉
Indeed, a martini made shaken, not stirred or a nice pint of Guinness always hits the spot.
Hey, Sean,
I’ll make sure there’s plenty of both always there for you in the sidebar. 🙂
How about that, I Interview the blog, and Liz Introduces the blog! Congrats Sean!
Techz, great minds follows the same paths!
Thanks TechZ for all your support!
